System Configuration #4
System: An AVR or integrated amplifier that has no line level outputs or internal bass
management.
Connections:
Connect an extra set of speaker cables from the output of your amplifier to the High Level
Inputs on the Flex Sub.
Configuration:
Set the Power switch to Auto so your Flex Sub will turn on automatically when the music
starts.
With the Phase switch, try both settings, and leave it set in the direction where you hear the
most low bass (at your listening position).
Adjust the X-Over control so you get the smoothest transition between the Flex Sub and your
main speakers. The correct setting will depend on your room and your other speakers.
Adjust the Volume control so that the level of the Flex Sub matches the level of your other
speakers. The output of the sub should blend smoothly with your other speakers and you
should not hear the sub as a separate source of sound.
Notes:
You may connect the Flex Sub to the speaker terminals on your amplifier or the terminals on
your speakers. You should use actual speaker wire for this connection. However, because very
little current flows through this connection, using thin gauge speaker cables for this will not
compromise performance.
WARNING:
DO NOT connect an amplifier with a balanced output to the High-Level Inputs on the Flex Sub.
This input uses a common ground, which is incompatible with most amplifiers that have fully
balanced outputs, and may cause distortion, or damage to the amplifier, if connected to them.
